The Missing[]

After the prosecutor explained Kai and Nya's guilt for ruining the Lightning-Tide Community Ceremony, the Lightning-Tide Defense stepped up, openly admitting their clients were clearly guilty. They expected to present a strong argument but confessed they had none. Frustrated, Kai asked if this was their idea of a defense, prompting the Defense Attorney to suggest adding Kai's speech in a gargle slime voice with a touch of smugness to the official charges before wrapping up their case. When Kai attempted to escape, the defense and other Lightning-Tides threw Vengestone at him, forcing him back into the cell. Kai questioned if they were aware that Vengestone nullified Elemental Powers, leaving the defense puzzled about what Elemental Powers even were.

After Wyldfyre, disguised as a Lava-Tide, tried to rescue Kai and Nya, Klirba ordered the defense and other Lightning-Tides to throw Vengestone at her, sending her to the cell as well. The Lightning-Tide Prosecutor turned to the defense for clarification on the possible punishment, asking if 3,000 zaps was greater than 2,000 zaps. The Lightning-Tide Defense guessed it might be, but then suggested that perhaps it wasn't. After Nya explained the situation, the Lightning-Tides released her while keeping Kai and Wyldfyre locked up. Fortunately, Nya managed to save them, and together they escaped.
